Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
This was a car wrap advertising scam. The scammer sent us a cheque for $2950, $800 of which was for us and $2150 for the scammer. I took the cheque to the issuing credit union to cash it, and they informed me it was fraudulent. Fortunately, I didn’t deposit into my chequing account.
The come-on was for an Oral-B car wrap. Besides the car wrap, we were to pass out samples. We were offered $550/wk salary. The original contact on the letter was Gary Banney ([email protected]). When I set up Zelle to make the money transfer, I found out the guy’s actual name was Adunke Akinbamidele ([email protected]). Contact phone number for both was (508) 233-8576.
